Being good at your job used to be enough, but it's not anymore. What protects your career now is what AI can't replicate: your reputation, your network, and the trust you've built. More in my recent conversation with @richierocks on DataFramed: datacamp.com/podcast/build-…
🚀🚀 Big news today: @DataCamp is acquiring AI startup Optima and.. 👉 We are launching our new AI-native learning experience! 👉 Yusuf Saber is joining @DataCamp as Chief AI Officer Why now? The best way to learn has always been: A great teacher with one student. But for most people, that kind of personalized attention has never been accessible. Similarly, for most organizations, scaling high-quality education is the challenge. Now, for the first time, we can bring the power of 1-on-1 tutoring to millions. Our new experience is: 🎓 Truly personal — courses adapt in real time to your level, goals, and context 🛠️ Relevant to your work — finance analyst, student, marketer, engineer… it fits your world! 🧠 Human at the center — feels like a great teacher, not “AI hints” bolted onto videos. What we're shipping: ✅ Free and Premium learners can try the AI-native experience in Introduction to AI and Introduction to SQL 🏢 Enterprise: can get a demo from our team as of today. We're moving towards customized learning at scale in 2026, aligned to your data, tools, and priorities. Reach out for a demo of our team.

@ZachWeiner Wow, no one else has picked (D) and time-travel fantasies. I thought everyone had those.
@harchychy @DataCamp You're gonna want to come to this datacamp.com/webinars/getti…
@bernardo647 @DataCamp Got you covered tomorrow datacamp.com/webinars/data-…
@Timebringer @DataCamp Take the Machine Learning Scientist track datacamp.com/tracks/machine… then our MLOps/DevOps courses (track coming later this year) datacamp.com/search?q=mlops
@bigmacdturtle @DataCamp That's useful feedback. Never quite sure how many people view cheat sheets onscreen vs. printing them. Let me chat to Design to see if anything can be done.
@ProfCelestine @DataCamp @patricklucey @StatsPerform For predicting the World Cup winner, you have to add in the rules of the tournament to your model. Here it will have a bigger efect, since 1 loss has a bigger effect on whether you make it past the group stage.
@ProfCelestine @DataCamp @patricklucey @StatsPerform If you are predicting individual matches, you'd use the result to update the team performance scores using something like Elo ratings, like we do in this post datacamp.com/blog/predictin…
@olukoniseun @DataCamp I mean that if you wrote code, all you have to do is re-run your cleaning script with the new dataset. Clicking 'Run' is usually easier than redoing everything.
@olukoniseun @DataCamp If you can clean your data by writing code (rather than editing it by hand) then your life will be much easier when the dataset is updated and you have to do the cleaning process all over again.
@corontined @DataCamp The exercise is about the order that SQL executes the code, not the order you write it. The two things are different, and it's worth understand this difference to avoid writing buggy code. Hope this helps.
@DataCamp @FriendsTV Me: To write an S-Q-L query, you start with the Sequel command called SELECT.
